[QUOTE="The Ant, post: 967721, member: 27453"] Hi all, Kathy, that's terrible - 26 fractures, think you have to have the record! Hope it heals up fast. We switched to the streets for the summer - did a 7,000 mile 6 week street bike tour of the western US and Canada. Adapted Givi sidecases to my CBR, Randy already had a set on his VFR, and we were off. Four corners of our route: south to Monterey to watch the Moto GP at Laguna Seca in July, east to CO where we road over a bunch of 12,000 foot passes, took the coal fired steam train from Durango to Silverton, north to Yellowstone, Mammoth Hot Springs, watched the Billings Hill Climb in Montana, Glacier and on into Canada. Stayed in Banff a few days, up to Jasper and then west to Prince Rupert. Then took the Inland Passage Ferry to Port Hardy on the northern tip of Vancouver Island, spent a week up there kayaking and looking for whales. Then home - wonderful trip, haven't really adapted back yet... weather was very hot and dry, only one day of rain, really beautiful country, did some hiking around as well. Then did the Dick Jagow Memorial GP mid September as our first ride back on dirt - sort of shocking... but what was really fantastic is I think all those street miles helped my target fixation problem go away!!! I was able to pick good lines and make my way around and thru riders stuck on the hills, used to be I'd get distracted by them and then crash too. So I can't wait to get back in the woods and see if I can do better on the trails as well. However, Randy sold his KTM in anticipation of a new one that's on order - but isn't here yet, so we're short a bike! He might be able to borrow one to go riding around Bend next weekend if that works out. Hope so! -SusanP. CRF250x CBR600F4i [/QUOTE]
